Updates


KeyChain

As I mentioned in my last post, the open source browser extension KeyChain can now be used on SteemWorld to work with private keys in a more secure and comfortable way. If you didn't try KeyChain yet, I highly recommend to do so. It is currently only available for Chromium based browsers like Chrome, Brave and Opera, but other browsers like Firefox will also be supported in future.

Here is an example of how it looks like when claiming rewards via KeyChain:

As you can see, there is no need to enter a private key anymore, because the transactions are being signed and broadcasted in KeyChain. SteemWorld and no other website/app has access to your keys, because they are being securely stored in the browser's plugin storage by the use of AES encryption and a user defined password.

SteemWorld automatically detects a working KeyChain installation and it will from now on be used by default. In case there should be an issue when using KeyChain (claiming accounts and creating claimed accounts is not yet supported) it is possible to deactivate it in Settings:


Savings Withdrawals

There is a new tab in the Orders section, which shows our coming savings withdrawals:


By clicking on the X button we can cancel a planned withdrawal:


Same as it is for the Powerdown there will now show up a warning for new withdrawals when starting SteemWorld:


Voted Witnesses

It is now possible to remove witness votes directly in the Account Details -> Witness Votes section:


By clicking on Vote For Witness... we can also vote for witnesses that are not in the Top 100:


Transfer encrypted memo

In Tools -> Transfer there is a new Encrypt Memo box. In case you want to transfer encrypted messages, just check the box (starting the memo with # is no longer supported):

In the making


  • Thinking about how to survive the current market prices (SteemWorld no longer free? Building a post promotion service? Ads?)
  • Web service for loading the data in a more efficient way and to enable me to add many cool new features in future
  • Different views / no limit in the posts overview
  • Details for coming rewards (number of posts/comments, maybe a pie chart)
  • Improved coming curation rewards overview
  • RC costs calculation

With your promotion of it @steemchiller and my confidence in you, I have installed Keychain in my Brave browser and set it up with my Active Private password. I have yet to use it, but presumably it is now "good to go" ...

As a quick test, I tried some other Steem apps. They still required SteemConnect, so not sure how widely known Keychain is and / or what the rate of adoption will be. As with most anything else, competition (if done right) is healthy, so I guess we'll find out!

One small matter to report this week. Recently, upon loading SteemWorld, I have noticed my reputation score has dropped. Not a big drop, but it does drop. Then, it goes back to where it was for awhile. Then it drops again ...

Not sure what that represents, but thought I would bring it to your attention. I believe you mentioned in a recent update post, that you were experiencing some changes, so perhaps this is just a temporary matter that you are already familiar with.

As we head in to 2019, with you and all of our fellow Steemians, sure hoping the prices go back up to something more sustainable!

Kannst du eine taegliche post machen? Es kann ja einfach sagen dass es eine post ist dich in deiner Arbeit zu uterstuetzen und kann ein Bild oder was einfaches haben. Und alle die die Steemworld benutzen koennen dich aud autovote setzen...

Danke dir, das hört sich gut an! Guten Rutsch in ein entspanntes Jahr 2019!

Vielen Dank für die großartige Arbeit! Vielleicht könntest Du einen upvote-Button neben der SteemPower Anzeige oben links installieren, mit Keychain könnte man Dich direkt upvoten, wenn Du jedesmal ein Kommentar erzeugst mit Dir als Begünstigten (ich benutze aber leider Firefox). Ich weiß nicht, ob du das willst aber wenn Du das Projekt OpenSource machst, müsste es doch auch Utopian upvotes geben und Ned würde dich evtl. unterstützen.

At this point, I would like to express my respect and praise for the Steemworld project. Although I can do no more than reward each week's report with a vote, I wish all the best for the New Year, and thank you for the work you are putting into the project.

Just grabbing the opportunity to wish you a much better New Year. May your path begin to lead you upwards, where all your good feelings and rewards await you.

Wish you, @arthur.grafo, @steemchiller and to all here and the rest of the steemians a wonderful new year.

Have a nice day.

Tolle Arbeit wie immer! Vielleicht findest du einen Witness, der dir seinen Server für das Hosting von Steemworld.org kostenlos zur Verfügung stellt.
Nur mal so als Idee.

P.S. Ich habe gerade den Kommentar von @gtg gesehen, der wohl in die gleiche Richtung geht.
